English society has been disturbed just now by some painful and touching incidents. First, the death of Lord John Lawrence in Westminster, London, England. He was the last of Indian statesmen who crowned a purely Indian career by filling the highest post in the government of that great dependency. Practically, he saved India during the Mutiny, and his administration of it as viceroy was directed towards the consolidation of its resources, and the limitation of those projects of territorial extension which found favor with some governors before and after him, whose knowledge of India was picked up during their term of office.
